Gas Safety Manager
Location: Scotland
Join Mitie's Technical Engineering Team
At Mitie, we're not just maintaining standards—we're shaping the future of engineering assurance and compliance across some of the UK's most critical infrastructure.
We're looking for a Gas Safety Manager (GSM) to join our central Technical Engineering Team, supporting the Ministry of Defence (MOD) estate. This is a highly influential role for a gas safety professional who thrives on auditing, technical assurance, compliance and continuous improvement.
You'll act as a trusted Subject Matter Expert, helping ensure that gas systems, processes and people operate safely, compliantly and in line with MOD requirements, industry standards and best practice.
Whether you're an existing Gas Safety Manager or an experienced gas compliance professional ready to take the next step, we'll provide the support, mentoring and development needed to succeed.
What You'll Be Doing
As Gas Safety Manager, you'll provide technical leadership and assurance across Mitie's MOD estate, with a particular focus on sites throughout Scotland.
Key responsibilities include:
- Acting as Mitie's technical authority for gas safety procedures and compliance management.
- Conducting audits of gas installations, systems and personnel to ensure compliance with JSP 375, legislation and industry standards.
- Supporting Responsible Persons (Gas) and operational teams with technical guidance and specialist advice.
- Reviewing procedures, risk controls and documentation to ensure alignment with regulatory and MOD requirements.
- Investigating incidents, undertaking root cause analysis and driving improvements to prevent recurrence.
- Identifying trends through audit findings and performance data, recommending corrective and preventative actions.
- Producing clear audit reports, action plans and technical communications.
- Working collaboratively with DIO, regulatory bodies, health and safety teams and operational stakeholders.
- Supporting the continued development and implementation of Mitie's gas safety governance framework.
- Monitoring changes in legislation, standards and industry best practice, ensuring these are effectively communicated across the business.
Reasons to use Rodeo

Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What Makes This Role Different?
This isn't a traditional operational gas management role.
You'll join a specialist team focused on engineering assurance, technical governance and compliance across a nationally significant MOD portfolio.
The role offers:
- The opportunity to become an authorised Gas Safety Manager within the MOD environment.
- Structured mentoring and development from experienced specialists.
- A varied mix of site-based auditing and home-based technical work.
- Exposure to complex engineering environments and critical infrastructure.
- Genuine influence on safety, compliance and engineering standards across a major national contract.
Travel typically involves site visits during one week followed by a week focused on report writing, technical reviews and remote support.
